Hey guys,

Vic Firth put up another clip of mine on their Podcast Page. This is a trio version of my original composition Pure Spirit. Matt Wilson is on drums and David Clark is on bass. Here's the link: http://www.vicfirth.com/podcasts/concert.php

There is also a nice clip of marimbist Pius Cheung also on the same podcast page.

The lead sheet of Pure Spirit can be downloaded from my website.

Best,

Ed

Wow!! I've never seen anything like this.

This is a movie I shot when I was in Philly in August 2007 I was doing some stuff with Tony at the University Of The Arts and at the end of the lesson I asked Tony to play a tune, this is the result totally on the spot performance and its great even though Tony did'nt think so and guess what later that evening we went out for something to eat and Tony being the perfectionist that he is gives me a cd of the same tune he recorded in the interim man you have to love this guy.Hope you all enjoy this, should also mention as this was recorded with the camera mic the audio is not the best quality

Oh man this is sooo cool! I can't resist!

For those who were in Sassenheim (and those were not too!), here is an excerpt from a CD just about to be released, of a cool reggae group of young musicians from Berlin. And among them is our dear little Charly on vibes!!!

I love this music, clean, well written, with a powerful singer, and where the vibes found his place... very cleverly!

Go Charly!... And we want to hear more very soon!!

PS: how many degres in the recording room? ;o)

Here's a great video from a new site we'll be launching very soon. It's over at www.worlddrum.studymusiconline.com. Todd Isler is the instructor, he's a great percussionist and drummer.

He has a book out in our store called 'You Can Ta Ka Di Mi This'. The book is here: www.store.studymusiconline.com/you-can-ta-ka-di-mi-improve-and-expand-y…

Here's a great video on the book by Todd.

Hello guys, Vic Firth is presenting an excerpt from the University of New Hampshire concert with Dave Liebman - Soprano, Matt Wilson - Drums, David Clark - Bass and me on vibes in a Video Podcast. Here's the link in case anyone would like to check it out: http://www.vicfirth.com/podcasts/concert.php

Un video interesante con marimba y theramin. Un theramin se utilizó en el tema de Star Trek original. Pongo una foto de un músico theramin tambien.

Man, there are so many of us here now. I keep think of ways for us all to work and grow together.

So here's my pitch: The Summer of 2010 will be 'The Summer of Vibes'. Let's play for each other this summer. Let's play little concerts for each other pros and amateurs!

To me a concert has a few things to it. It usually has some talking or announcing and has more than one tune.

So let's say that if you post a recording where you are talking about the piece and it's more than one piece that it's a concert.

This is my attempt at the tune Spain there are a few mistakes here and there I have played it better but here it is anyway, all comments welcome, I am working on a solo as well.

Cheers John

Hey Guys,

As I've been away most of the time lately I thought I'd give an update on what I'm busy with, and that's the reason that I'm not online much.

So I had two really great gigs last couple of weeks. One was with a trio(vb-bs-git). A great bass anf guitar player from amsterdam. We had a real nice gig and I did record some stuff. But it needs some editing, so I'll post that when I have time.
